Orlando Bloom's Full Dating History Is Truly One for the Pop Culture History Books
These two were in a super low key relationship for several years before eventually parting ways. Though, not so low key that their rep didn't issue a formal statement during their breakup! As they put it to People, "They did decide to take some time apart due to their upcoming work schedule, and they remain very close. It was a mutual decision."
Kate spoke about the relationship to Vogue (via the Daily Mail), saying "Orlando and I met when we were kids. Blue Crush hadn't come out. Lord of the Rings hadn't come out. He was the first big heartbreak. First love—you feel like it's the be-all and end-all. To put as little pressure on the relationship you're in is very important. I regret that it was too intense for both of us."
This was just a rumored hookup, but E! News did speak to a source who said they were spotted getting cozy at Orlando's 30th birthday party. Per an eye witness "He couldn't keep his hands off of her. He would just keep grabbing her and kissing her. It was very sweet."
Anyway, here's a pic of Orlando and Penélope in 2007 (with Leonardo DiCaprio, randomly).
Orlando and Miranda met in late 2007 and got engaged in June 2010. They married just one month later in July, and in August Miranda revealed that she was pregnant. The couple welcomed their son Flynn in January 2011 and parted ways two years later—in Fall 2013. Orlando's rep issued a statement at the time, saying "Despite this being the end of their marriage, they love, support and respect each other as both parents of their son and as family."
For what it's worth, they seem to get along great as co-parents!
Katy and Orlando got flirty at the 2016 Golden Globes party and started dating shortly after. Proof:
But alas, they split a year later in February 2017 and their reps issued a joint statement to People, saying "Before rumors or falsifications get out of hand, we can confirm that Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time."
For what it's worth, Katy made it clear that things were amicable:
Gonna rewind real fast. Before Katy and Orlando split in 2017, multiple outlets reported that Selena and Orlando had hooked up to make Miranda Kerr and Justin Bieber jealous after they were spotted flirting at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. But Katy called the reports "conspiracy theories" and posted this:
Which Sel retweeted:
There were brief reports that Orlando was dating Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev in 2017, though a People source said "It's super casual." So casual, in fact, that things fully fizzled out and everyone forgot about it.
Here's a blurry pic of them out and about with friends that month, though!
Katy and Orly got back together in early 2018, and by March a source told People that "They are dating but not necessarily putting a label on it. They are not girlfriend and boyfriend. They do seem very happy together though."
The pair ended up getting engaged on Valentine's Day 2019...
...and then Katy announced that she was pregnant in March 2020. She and Orlando went on to welcome their daughter Daisy Dove!
Things kept trucking along until 2025, when Orlando and Katy hit a rough patch. Their last public appearance together was at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March:
After weeks of speculation, Us Weekly finally confirmed their split in June, speaking to a source who said "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."
The insider added that the breakup was "a long time coming" since things "have been tense for months," and they've been "living apart since Katy has been on tour."
That brings us up to date, but stay tuned...

The new Gilded Age: For billionaire weddings, discretion is out and consumption is in
Here comes the bride — and her 30-carat ring, A-list besties, and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of outfits. This summer's billionaire weddings have shown that quiet luxury is out, and conspicuous consumption — spending as a means of displaying status — is in. When Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos tied the knot in Venice in June, the couple shared details of their wedding with the public within hours of their vows being spoken. The guest list, which included Hollywood heavyhitters like the Kardashian-Jenner family and Leonardo DiCaprio and billionaire moguls like Barry Diller and Bill Gates, was on full display for paparazzi as the partygoers were shuttled between venues in open-air water taxis. The bride's outfits, including their expensive designers, were posted on Instagram, while an exclusive Vogue feature captured her final fitting. And the series of events leading up to the big day — the Paris bachelorette party and their two engagement parties — were professionally photographed and shared online. "They're not being quiet about it," Josh Spiegel, the founder of Birch Events, told Business Insider. "They're throwing celebration after celebration, and they're constantly in the news." Bezos-Sánchez's flashy nuptials mirrored, in some ways, a wedding a couple of weeks prior, that of Alex Soros, the son of hedge fund tycoon George Soros, and Huma Abedin, the political strategist and former Hillary Clinton aide. The more subdued Soros-Abedin union also drew a powerful guest list; Kamala Harris and the Clintons were in attendance, as were Jimmy Fallon and Jennifer Lawrence. The couple also gave the world an intimate look at the festivities, taking them inside the family's Hamptons estate, through an exclusive feature on Vogue's website. These nuptials echo those of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant in the summer of last year: opulent, public-facing, and full of A-listers. Little discretion was involved. "There's just this archetype now that's developing, and it's particularly at the very wealthiest tier of people that feel like they need to be international celebrities," Winston Chesterfield, the founder of Barton, a consulting firm focused on luxury and the wealthy, told BI. "It's not enough just to be really wealthy, to have huge yachts, and to live this life. They've got to be spoken about." A callback to the Gilded Age Not too long ago, billionaires chose an equally expensive, though more discreet path. Take the 2004 wedding of Vanisha Mittal, the daughter of billionaire Lakshmi Mittal, to banker Amit Bhatia. At the time, reports swirled that the wedding, which involved renting out the Tuileries Garden and part of Versailles, cost eight figures. But there were few details about how that money was spent. The couple didn't pose for magazines or offer journalists inside access. "We're seeing a shift in how the ultrawealthy approach weddings," Cameron Forbes, a luxury wedding planner, said. "The lines between billionaire and celebrity are increasingly blurred." While the "garden variety billionaire" may still cherish privacy, many of the absolute wealthiest, the centibillionaires, spend openly and without shame, Chesterfield said. It's a callback to the Gilded Age, when sociologist Thorstein Veblen coined the phrase conspicuous consumption. During that time, an immense amount of wealth belonged to an elite few, and economic inequality ballooned. Extravagant weddings, like Consuelo Vanderbilt's to the Duke of Marlborough, Charles Spencer-Churchill, celebrated that excess. "Part of the story is the sheer amount of money — this is a lot more money," Ashley Mears, a professor of sociology at the University of Amsterdam, told BI. "When you have a whole bunch more money in a system, you're just going to have a whole bunch more elaborate ways of showing status." The rich today are getting richer. Seventeen people are worth more than $100 billion, according to data from the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. As recently as 2017, Bezos was the only person to reach that threshold since Gates briefly did it in 1999. If the criticisms of the rich popularized by 2011's Occupy Wall Street movement led billionaires to shy away from the limelight, and the pandemic, which saw the ultrawealthy quarantine on yachts and skirt rules with private parties, ushered in an era of stealth wealth, Trump's second election told them that it's OK to come out of hiding. America not only embraced a billionaire as its leader, but one who is famous for his ostentatious spending. "When you have someone like Trump at the helm," Mears said, "you can spend without shame." 'There's power in that kind of visibility' Social media has further fueled the turn toward loud luxury, giving everyday people an unprecedented look into how the richest live. The weddings of the wealthy used to get write-ups in The New York Times; now, thanks to all-access photos and videos, the public gets inside and rewards conspicuous spending with attention. The Ambani wedding "exploded on social media," Chesterfield said, and that virality provided a blueprint. "It's turned from how many people are crowding outside St. Thomas' Church on Fifth Avenue into how many people are online and talking about our wedding," he said, referencing the Vanderbilt wedding. The seemingly endless public interest — Sánchez Bezos's first post of her wedding now has over 480,000 likes — fuels the competition for status. "There's this impetus to show yourself more and to Instagram yourself, and it really, really takes the idea of conspicuity" to the next level, Mears said. That attention isn't always positive, as history has shown. The Gilded Age's conspicuous consumption led to a populist backlash, policies aimed at wealth redistribution, and the labor movement. The fallout from the Sánchez-Bezos affair brewed online, and Venice locals protested the wedding in person. Still, positive or negative, there's power in visibility, said luxury wedding planner Bill Folchetti. "Whether it's intentional or not, it opens doors — business-wise, socially, everything," luxury wedding planner Bill Folchetti said. "No matter what happens between them, Lauren's now carved out a permanent place on the front page."

Clint Eastwood's ‘addictive' affairs during first marriage exposed in new biography: ‘I was going to do as I pleased'
Clint Eastwood openly committed adultery during his marriage to Maggie Johnson, a new biography claims. In 'Clint: The Man and The Movies,' biographer Shawn Levy wrote about the 95-year-old actor's alleged affairs that he had while he was wed to Johnson from 1953 to 1984. 'By many accounts, including his own, he more or less comported himself as if he were a bachelor,' Levy wrote of Eastwood, according to People. 10 Clint Eastwood attends the 20th Annual AFI Awards in January 2020. WireImage 10 Clint Eastwood with his first wife, Maggie Johnson, in 1960. Getty Images Johnson, according to Levy, was fully aware of her husband's infidelities at the time. 'One thing Mag had to learn about me was that I was going to do as I pleased,' Eastwood told Photoplay in 1963, per Levy. 'She had to accept that, because if she didn't, we wouldn't be married.' The 'Rahwide' star was also reportedly quoted by Levy as saying, 'I'm independent, a vagabond, and [Johnson] accepts me as I am and doesn't strangle me with female possessiveness.' 10 Maggie Johnson and Clint Eastwood in 1956.

From Lauren Sanchez to Nicola Peltz: 6 celebrity weddings that redefined luxury
Celebrations for one of the most highly anticipated weddings of the year are still in full swing in Venice, where billionaire Jeff Bezos and former TV personality Lauren Sanchez have tied the knot. Only events like the Oscars or the Golden Globes are usually able to bring together so many famous and wealthy individuals, but it seems like nobody wanted to miss this wedding. Guests included Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, most of the Kardashian clan, as only Kourtney Kardashian Barker was missing, and Leonardo DiCaprio, accompanied by his girlfriend, Italian supermodel Vittoria Ceretti. As lavish as this wedding has been so far, it's only one of a long list of over-the-top wedding celebrations celebrities got us used to. Here are some of our favourite extravagant weddings of recent years. The wedding of Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham was characterised by a lot of alleged drama as the bride was rumoured to be 'difficult' according to insiders close to the wedding planning team. The couple got married on the Peltz's $103m (£76m) family estate in Palm Beach, Florida, spanning 44,000 square feet, offering plenty of space to enact their vision of the big day. The bride chose to wear a dress by Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli, which sparked controversy considering her mother-in-law is one of the most coveted fashion designers in the business. The wedding lasted three days and counted 500 guests, with famous society and fashion photographer German Larkin capturing it all for Vogue. Nobody does 'over-the-top' better than the Kardashian-West duo and their wedding is there to prove it. Kim Kardashian's wedding to Kanye West spanned two countries. The former couple started with renting the Palace of Versailles - which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site - for their rehearsal dinner. The lucky people in attendance were delighted by a private performance by American singer Lana Del Rey, who sang her hit 'Young and Beautiful' while the happy couple danced. The following day, the rapper and TV star flew all 200 of their guests on private jets to Italy to attend the wedding. The actual ceremony took place in a 16th-century fort in Florence, and the bride wore a custom Givenchy dress. Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge wed in 2023 after two years of dating and their fairytale bash was unanimously considered the wedding of the year. The couple chose a spectacular venue, the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Rock in Antibes, South of France, and the bride wore three custom Chanel gowns that looked nothing short of spectacular. The music was one of the party's highlights. The guests enjoyed a fabulous performance by Lionel Richie, the father of the bride, and a surprise Good Charlotte concert, as Sofia's sister, Nicole Richie, is married to the band's frontman, Joel Madden. How to forget the ultimate party, the three-day bash of actress Priyanka Chopra and singer Nick Jonas that took place in Jodhpur, India, at the Umaid Bhawan Palace. The wedding included both Western and traditional Indian ceremonies to celebrate the couple's Hindu and Christian heritages. For the Christian ceremony, the whole wedding party modelled Ralph Lauren. The bride wore a hand-beaded and embroidered gown with an astonishing 75-foot-long veil, which took a total of 1,826 hours to complete, while the groom opted for a double-breasted black tuxedo. Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker seemed like an unlikely couple but the pair got married in 2022 and are still going strong, having welcomed their first child together, Rocky Thirteen Barker, in November 2023. The reality star and the Blink-182 drummer's wedding was a very Italian affair, organised in almost every detail by fashion designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, who are said to be very close friends of the family. Although the couple officially married in a fun and intimate ceremony in Las Vegas, the wedding celebrations in Portofino, held at Dolce and Gabbana's holiday home, L'Olivetta, looked wonderful, albeit far from traditional, with red roses and votive candles everywhere. Last but not least, the newlyweds Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, who drew both admiration and local criticism due to the extravagant scale of the celebrations. The couple pretty much rented the city of Venice, Italy, out for three days to allow all their famous friend to enjoy the extravaganzas, much to the discontent of the local residents. The celebrations seem endless and include a foam party on a yacht, a pyjama party, and a Masquerade ball.
